How to re-position the plasmoid?

I have two different sized monitors; one of which I often keep turned off so that I mostly use the larger primary display. How can I reposition this plasmoid to be at the upper center of the main display? I've moved the cursor all over the screen looking for the "grab" controls but to no avail. Any ideas?

no problem but if the user install kde 4.7 on kubuntu 11.04 he can install the widget with that package 2 user have used my pakcakge on kubuntu 11.04 with kde 4,7 without problems

Good work!

I have two advice:
1. Touch screen and keyboard friendly.
2. this should be think as a bug, when panel is not set with "always show", the popup position should cover the panel, otherwise the current lmplementation will have some part of popup window outside the screen.

Re: Good work!

Hi!

1 - You can use Touchégg (https://code.google.com/p/touchegg/) to make it touch friendly, I'm using it just right now, and I open Takeoff making a pinch with five fingers.
About keyboard, I'm adding this feature now, along with search support.

2 - I haven't got this problem... When takeoff if visible my panel is visible all the time...

Re: Re: Re: Re: Good work!

Hi,
actually I think the problem is caused by you set the popup size to the "maximized windows size", but popup along the panel. I think the reasonable solution is you found the panel height and set the small size, or place the panel in a correct place.

How do you like Plasma 5? The best KDE Desktop ever. Definitely a nice improvement. Not decided yet. Haven't tried it yet. I do not like some of the changes. KDE is taking the wrong way. I am still sticking with KDE 3.5. I have no opinion, but wanted to vote anyway.
